如何将Power BI Desktop连接到ssrs报表服务器

Question

I am using Report Builder 3.0 in order to connect to SSRS report server http://mosaic.catex.com/reportserver . Is there a way to use Power BI to connect to SSRS report server instead?

Thanks

Answering the question that was originally asked: there's no way to connect Power BI Desktop to SSRS Report Server. Power BI Report Server is another matter, but your question predates its release so that is very unlikely to be what you're asking about.

Power BI Desktop (which I presume you mean when you say Power BI ) and Report Builder (pictured in your question) are different tools used to build different types of reports. There's no overlap between them and they're not interchangeable.

There's also no way to use an SSRS report as a data source in Power BI (as Alan mentions), though I wouldn't recommend doing this even if it were possible. In SSRS 2016, there is a way to pin SSRS report elements to a Power BI dashboard (as Snowlockk mentions), but I'm not sure that's what you meant by "dashboard" in your comment. The functionality is somewhat limited too (since you need to be running SSRS 2016, and you can only pin chart/gauge/map/picture elements).

When asking if something can be done, it's always helpful to say exactly what you're trying to accomplish just in case it can't be done the way you're asking about, but it can be done another way.
